I know blog posts are supposed to be timely and such, but does it count if it ‘feels’ like I took these pictures yesterday???

I recently took pictures at a lure coursing trial and it was the first trial held in Oregon that offered the new Coursing Ability Test through AKC. This event opens the world of lure coursing to all breeds of dogs instead of just sighthounds. I am so glad AKC decided to do this because it was so much fun watching these dogs chase the plastic bunny.

Bedlington Terrier

Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever

German Shepherd

Vizsla

Husky

and a very funny Bull Mastiff

She thought grabbing the cone at the end would be fun 🙂

Even the little dogs came out to play…

Pekingese

a tiny Chihuahua with a HUGE personality

This Doxie was my favorite 🙂

As always there were lots of sighthounds and they continue to take my breath when I watch them run!

I have sat here and literally laughed out loud — LOUDLY. These photos are hysterical and such great fun to look at. Impressive. Although, I didn’t laugh as loud when I got the the Ridgeback’s photo. The Ridgeback is pretty intimidating, I must admit.
